PS, I would be interested on your feedback on Crystal Serum & swirl resistance in a few months time; the finish on your SG is very deep/glossy  |
I love the look of the red interior, if BMW had done a merino red/orange interior for the F30 I'd have had that last time but sadly it was only the dakota leather
I would have gone carbon had it been a factory option, seems strange it wasn't there as it seems to be for every other M car. Maybe next time
I'm hoping the Crystal Serum holds up as well as expected. I usually take most of the claims with a heavy marketing pinch of salt but I had the C1.5 on the last car and that seemed to last. I only had the car for 50 weeks though so can't really comment on the very long term.
The CS was explained as having a candy like gloss to it. At the time it made no sense to me, it was only after seeing the final version that the penny dropped. I'll try to update when the sun comes out to see if I can see any marks on the paint at all.
